1926. From the diary of Edward Mandell House, the self-styled
Colonel House (colonel in nickname only), who served as President
Woodrow Wilson's closest confidant during the four years of the
First World War. By reading the House diary, one becomes a witness
to one of the most exciting periods in history. To Colonel House,
the election of President Wilson heralded the dawn of a new age of
progress and reform. The advent of World War I brought a halt to
his domestic program, but enlarged House's sphere of observation
and contacts. Peacemaking brought him into contact with the leaders
of virtually every country in the world. Kings, presidents, and
leaders of new movements come vividly to life with House's words.
